The Co-op 78626 is home to several creative businesses and a retail outlet.

Space functions as creative center

Hairstylists, designers, photographers, artists and other creative minds have space to envision, create and market their work at The Co-op 78626.

Brady Clark opened The Co-op, which accommodates his graphic and apparel design business, with his business partner, Faith Clark, who also operates a two-chair salon in the building.

Other businesses and artists in the building include Todd White Photography, Spark Interior Style by Misty Adair, marketing and public relations firm Cowboy Syndicate, Internet and social media service Social Butler, mobile repair shop iLabs, military nonprofit the Boot Campaign, and used boot seller Gypsy Hart Cowgirl. The space also includes a retail area featuring handmade and handpicked jewelry and apparel from the Georgetown area.

"The whole Co-op is for like-minded and creative people to [have] office [space]," Brady said. "All of us would like to ... share our passion and be a creative center for Georgetown."

Brady said the business's biggest accomplishment in 2012 was opening and going from a concept to reality.

"It's in the beginning stages, but it has been successful," Brady said.

The Co-op plans to open additional office space, bring in a new vendor to manage the jewelry and apparel store, and bring in new products in 2013.
